Abstract

A desired value of reactive power flow between a to-be-controlled power system and an adjoining power system is determined according to measured values of the reactive power flow and an effective power flow and desired voltage values of the to-be-controlled power system and of the adjoining power system. Thereafter, a required value of a reactive power of the to-be-controlled power system is calculated according to the desired value of the reactive power flow, the measured values of the reactive power flow and the effective power flow, and the desired voltage value and a measured voltage value in the to-be-controlled power system. Thereafter, a control apparatus having an electric capacity near to the required value of the reactive power is selected from control apparatus arranged in the to-be-controlled power system to make the selected control apparatus adjust a voltage of the to-be-controlled power system. Therefore, cooperation of the to-be-controlled power system with the adjoining power system can be performed by collecting locally-existing-information, and a voltage fluctuation and/or a reactive power fluctuation in the to-be-controlled power system can be immediately suppressed.
